WARNING:
It is always better to check the transmission
oil level when the engine is cool or cold. If
the engine is hot, you should exercise great
caution to avoid burning yourself on hot
engine or exhaust parts.
Park the car on level ground with the engine off.
1. Using a wrench of the correct size, loosen
the oil filler plug by turning it counterclock-
wise and remove it with your fingers.
2. Use your finger to feel inside the hole. The
oil level should be at its bottom edge. If it is
not, check for leaks before adding oil. To
refill the transmission or bring the oil level
up,add oil slowly until it reaches the proper
level. Do not overfill.
